Feel the power surging underneath me baby we make quite a pair
I want to let it take me over completely until there's nothing that I wouldn't dare
Whoa oh uh oh, uh oh oh, oh yeah
I need to ride, feel the rush, take me
I need to ride, feel the rush, take me
I want to blur the lines
Erase the cage I'm in
I need to stop my mind from talking all the time
It runs on
And that's when I just know yeah yeah yeah yeah oh it's time to go
Baby us we make quite a pair
I want to let it take me over completely until there's nothing that I wouldn't dare
Spurs and reins or pipes and chains, either way it's going to draw me in
And then we're cruising down some twisty road to someplace that we have never been
Whoa oh uh oh, uh oh oh, oh yeah
I need to ride, feel the rush, take me
I need to ride, feel the rush, take me
I want to blur the lines
Erase the cage I'm in
I need to stop my mind
I need to stop my mind
I need to stop my mind
It runs on, it runs on, it runs on and on and on and on
It runs on, it runs on and on and on and on, it runs on
I need to stop my mind from talking all the time
It runs on
And that's when I just know yeah yeah yeah yeah oh it's time to go
Whoa oh uh oh, uh oh oh, oh yeah
Whoa oh uh oh, uh oh oh, oh yeah
I need to ride, feel the rush, take me
I need to ride, feel the rush, take me
I need to ride, I need to ride, I need to ride, I need to ride
I need to ride, I need to ride, I need to ride
I need to ride, I need to ride, I need to ride

Red Room nights
Red Room nights
Red Room nights
Oh, hear them cutting through all disguise
This crucible shatters lies, leaving me breathless
Rack em up , shoot some pool
Feed the jukebox, grab a stool, just hanging
Same old songs they always play
Grab that guy he still needs to pay
Walk in and I stop having to steer
Kickin’ back and here comes my favorite beer
Keep having one more drink till the band starts
And now I float on a wave
A wave of sound to make my heart pound
Oh, hear them cutting through all disguise
This crucible shatters lies, leaving me breathless
Rack em up , shoot some pool
Feed the jukebox, grab a stool, just hanging
Same old songs they always play
Grab that guy he still needs to pay
New boots tight black everything I’m feeling good
And if I catch your eye maybe we could
Have time for one more drink before last call
In the weeds no time to think
Gimme a second I’ll get you a drink
Don’t want to know
Waited a week to see your face
We’re so lucky to have this place
I gotta go, I gotta go
Oh, hear them cutting through all disguise
This crucible shatters lies, leaving me breathless
Rack em up , shoot some pool
Feed the jukebox, grab a stool, just hanging
Same old songs they always play
Grab that guy he still needs to pay
Walk in and I stop having to steer
Kickin’ back and here comes my favorite beer
Keep having one more drink until last call
I ain’t seen you since I don’t know when
Here’s a shot of Jameson for my old friend
Keep having one more drink until last call

Wrecked The World
02:50

Is it too late?
No it’s not too late to stick your head in the sand
We say we care, that we’ll fix it all
Can’t be that bad, it’s ok to stall
Not just my fault, don’t have time to deal
But did you hear, this time the fire’s for real
I use bamboo instead of paper and I might take the bus
Trying to be a better person kinda gives me a rush
For all the good it would do
The whole west coast goes up in flames
Can’t fix the damage between the hurricanes
Ice caps Disappearing, making sea levels rise
Still got my car, still got my Prime, just gotta
Wade through my guilt for the prize
For all the good it would do
Is it too late?
No it’s not be too late to stick your head in the sand
We know it’s scary but what can you do
Can’t seem to fix it but what else is new?
We wrecked the world, with the damage still untold
Race of a cliff because we’re all wearing blindfolds
Will I stop feeling bad if I buy organic?
Drove my Prius to a climate march - will that help the planet?
For all the good it would do
Toxic waste, another oil tanker spills
The corporate world can’t even track its kills
I still fly as if I need to, just can’t stop buying plastic
A government that gave a shit would be fantastic
For all the good it would do
It’ll be alright
It’ll be alright
It’ll be alright
It’ll be alright
Right right right
Right right right right
Right?

Low Rent Pardise
03:54

It was a low rent paradise
Rough and ready but you better look twice
We hooked it up and called it home
Move along / Miss my freak scene
DIY for a discount price
Didn't last long but we rolled the dice
When the empty streets were ours to roam
Move along / Miss my freak scene
If you wanted to make the rounds life's easy you don't have to walk too far
Watch them building an art messiah
When your neighbors were all old friends, and you knew you'd see them down at the bar
If you wanted to capture sound go two doors down to record a shooting star
It was a low rent paradise
Rough and ready but you better look twice
We hooked it up and called it home
Move along,
Head to Polly's and drink your breakfast just in time to make the scene
Move along
Lost the lease on your old apartment? Baby just call Jody Green
Move along
Two guys turn a burnt-out store front into Soul Brothers' pizza dream
Move along
Once they fixed it up got kicked to the curb to suit their fat cat landlord's schemes
Move along
Climbed to your window and he had a machete but don't let that freak you out
Move along
We'd just head down to find his daddy ask what that was all about
Spare a little change for the homeless
We all remember our friend Bill's refrain
But there's no room for the homeless round here no more
Can't squeeze them in between the condos and the fucking chains
Music everywhere along with pawnshops and despair an easy payday loan but one you can't repay
No more lawn chairs out on the corner but you can buy a seat at any overpriced cafe
They gobble up the poor and all the people not like them and then they move on next to eat the middle class
I'm waiting for the day when I can tell them all it's their turn
That they've had their chance
And now it's time for them to move along
Move along

Never Stops
03:34

Well today she woke up and she felt just fine
Until she looked at the time
Jumped into the race, packed the kids up to go
But goddamn they’re slow
Can’t miss this meeting she needs this one over and done
But they never come
Does it does it does it ever stop
Does it does it does it ever stop
She has ideas she makes these plans inside her head
What will she be what will she do what she will build
But then the world, it comes crashing in and sweeps it all away, if only she could see what’s come to take its place
She needs to grab with both hands
Never saw how he had helped them all along
Until he was gone
Answers the phone but the shouting just rings in her ear
She’s not who they want to hear
Does it does it does it ever stop
Does it does it does it ever stop
She has ideas she makes these plans inside her head
What will she be what will she do what she will build
But then the world, it comes crashing in and sweeps it all away, if only she could see what’s come to take its place
But will she still sabotage herself
She is her own worst enemy
Feels the time as it slips away
She takes a detour from her dreams
Sucked into endless reverie
Reading trash, hiding from the world
She has ideas, she makes all these plans, but they’re trapped in her head
It’s never her turn never her time to go first
And then the world, it comes crashing in and sweeps it all away, if only she could see what’s come to take its place
She needs to grab with both hands

I Never Listened
03:17

All day, locked inside with you
That spark, making something new
Waiting for the lightning strike
Catch it, wrestle hard, until it sounded just right
No thought to what lay in store
So sweet, gonna keep it pure
Why would we pass up the chance
Sign on, send it out and then we’ve started the dance
We were so thrilled to be there, I was so scared
That perfect frozen night
They tried to make him over
Cast me as back-up band and on with the show, it takes flight
I never listened at all
I never, I never, I never, I never
I never listened at all
I never, I never, I never, I never
I never listened at all
I never, I never, I never, I never
Up late singing Everly
Soundcheck picking fights with me
A pain like a heart attack
What if they’re right and I’m wrong
And there is no going back
One line signs my life away
All roads take you to LA
Drinks you till it’s had its fill
Catch up, keeping score ‘till all you’ve got is your will
We were so thrilled to be there, I was so scared
That perfect frozen night
They shape you with a hammer
Cast me as back-up band and on with the show, it takes flight
I never listened at all
I never, I never, I never, I never
I never listened at all
I never, I never, I never, I never
I never listened at all
I never, I never, I never, I never
I never, I never, I never, I never
I never, I never, I never, I never
Don’t take their advice it comes at too high a price
They think that they bought me, sold me
Say they know what’s best for me
Just see what they want to see
So I never, I never listened at all

It began with a rare invitation to stay
In the City, where all the cool people played
She was 16 and dying for something new
There’s no fear when you don’t have a clue
Finds everything she’s looking for, plus a little bit more
Watch out girl you’re what he’s looking for
She’s not going to let that stop her
Watching all the people going crazy at night
She’s not going to let that stop her
Gonna let the city take a bite
She’s not going to let that stop her
At the show she will be all right
Finds her place as the band begins to play
He wanted her grateful and eager to please
That’s the role that a girl’s supposed to play
But this girl’s got her own aspirations and she
Pays no mind as she makes her own way
Finds everything she’s looking for, plus a little bit more
Watch out girl he’s got some plans in store
Hey hey hey She’s on her way Yeah
Hey hey hey She’s on her way Yeah
Hey hey hey She’s on her way,
She’ll be ok, her turn to play, this is her day
Whoa

In This Together
04:52

Strolled into the sea drinks in our hands
Dune buggy filled up with our clan
As time goes by it’s never quite the same, but
That Vegas villa was insane
It still thrills me to find
Some mysterious sign
I dive right in to everything and
Play it, climb it, crush it, build it
We'd walk for miles just going nowhere
Or talk for hours with our friends
Sometimes you all can seem so far away, but
We find ourselves back here again
It still thrills me to find
Something fierce and divine
I dive right in to everything and
Play it, climb it, crush it, build it
Oh yeah
We’re still in this together
Oh yeah
We’re still in this together
Oh yeah
We’re still in this together
All these years can be a heavy burden
Their weight just wears your body down
But we have built them into such an empire
Now we can hardly see the ground
It still thrills me to find
Some mysterious sign
I dive right in to everything and
Play it, climb it, crush it, build it
Oh yeah
We’re still in this together
Oh yeah
We’re still in this together
Oh yeah
We’re still in this together
Way back when we were younger
We said we always would stay free
Know it seems that were getting older
But that does not change a thing for me
Make our own rules and have a ball
Make our own, make our own,
Make our own rules and have a ball
Make our own, make our own,
Make our own rules and have a ball
Oh yeah
We're still in this together
Oh yeah
We're still in this together
Oh yeah
We're still in this together
Oh yeah
We're still in this together
Oh yeah
We're still in this together

Good Ol' Boys

You’re so scared that the world has changed
Lost your power all you’ve got is your rage
But your kids all know better than you
And they’ll never go back
Fire, flood, warming acid seas
It’s November and it’s 80 degrees
Oil may mean money
But money’s no good if you’re dead
Drought and disease don’t care
If your state’s blue or it’s red
Hey
Hey
If I were gay, black, girl or refugee
Why would it hurt so much for you to respect me?
Never, never, never, never, never
Never going back, no
Never, never, never, never, never
Never going back, no
Why does it hurt so much for you to respect me?
Why does it hurt so much for you to respect me?
Why does it hurt so much for you to respect me?
Last gasp of the bully-boy right
Time to learn there’s more than one way to fight
And your kids all know better than you and they’ll never go back
We’ve got a woman in the White House now
No need to mansplain she will show you how
There is so much we never can fix but you don’t even try
So scared of this future you’ve built you believe your own lies
Hey
Hey
If I were gay, black, girl or refugee
Why would it hurt so much for you to respect me?
Never, never, never, never, never
Never going back, no
Never, never, never, never, never
Never going back, no
Why does it hurt so much for you to respect me?
Why does it hurt so much for you to respect me?
Why does it hurt so much for you to respect me?
You’re building cages to keep humans in
Fight people just for saying BLM
You think gay marriage was some kind of leftist attack
You tried to stop us from voting but you’re just a hack
We’re taking it back
We’re taking it back
We’re taking it back
We’re taking it back

Letting You Go
04:53
|

|
I sang you sweet, gave you my heart, was yours to keep
You gave me trust as if I wasn’t built to fail you
Not a single time
I need you here, can’t let you go , can’t shake this fear
That it won’t ever be the same and even if you’re here
You won’t be mine
Don’t want to let you go
But I already know
You’re going to be the best of them when you walk out that door
Go save the world and come back stronger
But no one’s going to love you more
Not ready yet, I need more time , so much more to get
But you could stay with us a little longer just
Until it’s time to go
I didn’t know, wasted our time, bracing for the blow
I just need one more chance to show you everything
‘Cause I need you to know
Don’t want to let you go
But I already know
You’re going to be the best of them when you walk out that door
Go save the world and come back stronger
But no one’s going to love you more
Oh it’s your time to fly away
I’ve got no right to ask you to stay
Oh it’s your time to fly away
I sang you sweet, gave you my heart, was yours to keep
You gave me trust as if I wasn’t built to fail you
Not a single time
I need you here, can’t let you go , can’t shake this fear
That it won’t ever be the same and even if you’re here
You won’t be mine
It’s time to let you go
And I already know
It’s time to let you go
It’s time to let you go

I'm Going Out

No more listening in my living room
I want to be there, God I’m so sick of zoom
To hell with moonlight, tonight’s for stage fright
If I can’t hear it then I’ll sing it myself
I’m going out
I’m going out
I’m going out
I’m going out
So many times we’ve stood and watched this world we make
We’re going to bring it back tonight
Tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight
I never knew I’d miss these people I don’t know
Moving together and just watching the show
So I’ll fuck my hair up until it looks right
I feel like dancing, I think I’ll go all night
I’m going out
I’m going out
I’m going out
I’m going out
So many times we’ve stood and watched this world we make
We’re going to bring it back tonight
Tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight
Tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight
I’m going out, I’m going out
So set your fears aside, we’re going to do this right
I’m going to hold you close and it will be alright
I’m going out, I’m going out
I’m going out, I’m going out
I’m going out tonight
I’m going out, I’m going out
I’m going out, I’m going out

What a GREAT album! It has been a while since I found an album that I could listen to from beginning to end without skipping. Classic Ian MacKaye vocals. Amy Farina absolutely kills it on drums. I hadn't heard of Joe Lally on Bass, but really enjoyed his singing/bass. I highly advise checking this out. You'll get hooked. I love "Clean Kill" but "BQM" does it for me (love the beat). Congrats Coriky! Nicely done! Can't wait to see you live!!!
